Root Visual Voicemails

I just rooted my phone today, and am trying to clean out my internal memory. I use the built in Visual Voicemail application provided by Sprint. I have a few locked voicemails that I would like to save, preferably by taking them out of my internal memory, and saving them on my computer. I purchased the full version of Titanium Backup, and have accessed the voicemail application. The individual voicemails are saved in the internal memory of the phone. By long-pressing on the voicemail application in Titanium, I clicked on Explore. It lists the individual voicemail entries on my phone. They have a .AMR extension, for which I have the codec for on my computer's audio player. I just need to know how to get these .AMR files from my phone to my computer. Does anyone know how to do this?
 
Ok think i found a way to help you. I did a search with Root Explorer and found that the amr files are located:
/data/data/com.coremobility.app.vnotes/files

you should then be able to select menu multi files and select all or the individual ones you want to save.
 
Worked like a charm! Thanks a ton! I have been trying for over a year to figure out how to get those voicemails saved! I had tried to do so without rooting, then finally caved on that. Once rooted, I just needed to know where to look. I appreciate the heads up. I had downloaded a few explorer programs, but none of them gave me access to that data folder. This was totally worth the 5 dollar fee. I cant thank you enough. It was fantastic to hear my voicemails play through Winamp on my PC!
 
One quick question for you regarding the use of Root Explorer. When I purchased it, one of the features says multi-select. I am assuming that means you can select multiple files to copy/move to other folders. I am a very tech savvy guy, and I tried everything under the sun to select multiple files, to no avail. I had to copy each voicemail file one by one, which was very daunting. Do you know how to access multi-select? My guess is that it is so easy, it is staring me right in the face!
 
Yes just tap the menu button on your phone it will give you a pop up with the options. Root Explorer is the best I have found so far. Others like ES and others like Astro (including myself) However to just get it done Root Explorer seems to be the way to go
